The Desire of the Cold Militant
The Retrouvailles "That is you"

And believe me throughout dinner with someone whose heart is pounding uneasily just because of an unexpected kiss.

Azlan is not the type of man who likes to let out his smile, imagine a stiff and cold man suddenly let out a horse-grinning style.

Obviously, those who see it will be considered Azlan has gone crazy.

But the bonus kiss really made Azlan's heart miserable, he tried not to jump up and down happy because he couldn't possibly vent his current blissful facial expression.

Let's say 'Prestigious' a lion king 🦁 must jump happily letting out an unusual expression of a handsome face full of true rigidity.

What would the world say if Azlan did it?!.

Rather he was crazy for not being able to withstand the happy turmoil behind his heart, the man has to focus on his dinner while staring at the beautiful face that later makes the world of an Azlan Del Piero tumble back erratically.

"Everything looks beautiful"

Nadine spoke as she developed her smile, the girl looked at Azlan then looked towards their romantic dinner table.

The word love displayed sweetly in the corner of the table makes Nadine to give her a smile, the layout arrangement of each item that exists can be ascertained in the arrangement by Azlan himself.

The perfectionist who always wants everything to look perfect is unlikely to leave the details of his full table arrangement to others.

The selected food menu is also not a snack, Nadine can feel how the quality of the food they are served.

Best Wagyu A5.

The man must have been very thorough to ask the restaurant to serve Wagyu with super quality.

Wagyu is a word for cow from Japan. In Japanese, Wa means Japanese and Gyu means cow.

Wagyu cow is famous for its juicy and savory meat and expensive price. In Japan there are several regions that produce the best quality wagyu, such as Sanda, Omi, Mishima, and Kobe.

And believe me, the price of wagyu is categorized as quite expensive because of its quality and taste. If we try to peek or look at online stores, the price of wagyu meat can reach millions of dollars per kilogram.

And why did Azlan choose the quality of the Wagyu A5?!.

The A5 pinned after the word Wagyu is the value of Wagyu beef. The Japan Meat Grading Association scores each piece of meat based on results (A-C) including marbling, firmness, color and overall quality (1-5). Meat with an A5 value is the meat with the highest value.

With its high value, no wonder Wagyu A5 is known as beef with a relatively expensive price.

They spend dinner together while accompanied by beautiful music that is full of love, not to mention sometimes the eyes of Azlan who looks at Nadine with millions of meaningful views.

Occasionally sweet talk occurs, although the lion Azlan looks so stiff, Nadine always tries to throw stiffness between them.

Sometimes the girl invites Azlan to talk, discussing some things in the past counts as a reminder of a moment that has long passed.

Until finally the chat just flowed along as they finished enjoying dinner together.

And when they arrived at the peak of dinner, one unexpected chatter flowed between them.

"I think we met in the summer of Rome a few years ago"

Azlan spoke slowly then threw away his gaze.

Nadine frowned for a moment.

"Snow in Rome?"

"You fell unconscious in front of the Colosseum in the winter, and I just found out your weight and height that day"

Azlan spoke quickly and then drained the mineral water in front of him slowly.

Nadine froze up.

"What?"

Nadine is frozen.

"Yes?"

The Colosseum a few years ago?!.

Instantly she clasped her palm tightly as she regained consciousness Bill Rowland lied to her.

"I'm taking you to the hospital because you passed out nad, don't you remember?"

"Then the labyrinth?"

"Maze?"

"You're not lying to me, are you?"

"Oh come Nad, until when do you doubt myself? have I had less sacrifices so far? look even I got hurt while carrying you"

"I don't think it's you, sorry to always bother you Bill"

"What are you talking about? weren't we tied to the red thread from the beginning? I can feel whatever you feel, Nad because that's why would you marry me?"

And that day she made the decision to accept an engagement offer from Bill Rowland without leaving even the slightest bit of suspicion.

Huh.he really cheated me.

Nadine tried to withstand the turmoil in her chest, then she looked at Azlan with teary eyeballs.

"What's wrong?"

Azlan looked at Nadine while raising the tip of his eyebrows.

"Give me your palm"

"Yes?"

Azlan looked confused.

the man slowly gave his palm to Nadine.

The girl slowly grabbed Azlan's palm, then slowly moved her index finger to Azlan's palm.

The man was silent for a moment, letting Nadine's beautiful fingers dance in her palms, a split second later Azlan smelled her smile and then she stared into the face of the girl before him.

"Retrouvailles"

Azlan moved his lips without making a sound.

Nadine instantly developed her smile while shedding her tears.

Do I doubt you, baby?!.

No, I'm sure it's really you.

Nadine immediately grabbed Azlan's palm, she placed the man's palm on his right cheek, letting Azlan gently stroke his face.

"I miss you, I really miss you"

His whispers slowly while closing his eyeballs, enjoying the sturdy palm for a long time.
